All that translates into a picture that's very comfortable to look at, and of course very sharp. We tested the monitor with office applications, movies and games, and had no complaints – this is one of those products that isn't best in class but that's perfectly good for most people, and that's reflected in the price. We've seen panels with brighter, more vivid, more accurate colours, for example, but they're also going to cost you more.

Throw in a USB 3 hub (replete with three USB-A ports) and an appealing, bezel-less design and you’re left in no doubt: this is the ultimate value gaming monitor. When work is done, these monitors are the perfect partner for light gaming, as they come with a 4 ms GtG response time for fast and smooth pixel transitions and Adaptive-Sync support to synchronise the monitor’s refresh rate with the GPU’s framerate to achieve tear-free visuals. The QHD models Q32P2CA and Q27P2CA also offer a 75 Hz refresh rate as opposed to the common 60 Hz refresh rate, providing a 25% smoother visual experience when observing fast moving objects or cursor movements. Below, you’ll find our roundup of the best 1440p monitors and gaming monitors we’ve tested. If you’re not sure where to start, we’ve also included a brief buying guide that covers the basics of buying a 1440p monitor. Two further models in QHD resolution are the 32” AOC Q32P2CA and the 27” AOC Q27P2CA, which boast IPS panels and a 75 Hz refresh rate. Much sharper due to its smaller 27” panel, the Q27P2CA offers the optimal combination of size (27”) and resolution (QHD) for a large majority of users. It creates colourful, rich visuals suited for most applications, with an exceptionally wide gamut coverage (126.5% sRGB, 108.4% AdobeRGB, 100.8% DCI-P3) suited for graphic designers and content creators. The stand included with the AOC Q27P2Q offers tilt, swivel, pivot, and height adjustments so you can always get a comfortable angle. Ergonomics always comes in handy during long, number crunching or editing hours. You can even swap this out with a VESA mount, but it’s completely unnecessary unless you have multiple monitors or a very small desk.The famed Samsung Odyssey G7 made this roundup without breaking a sweat. There’s very little that can match this monitor for sheer performance, and as its price slips ever downwards, it’s becoming dangerously good value as well. The 27” AOC U27P2CA also employs a 4K resolution panel, but this time with an IPS panel. The extra sharpness due to the higher pixel density on a smaller frame size and the increased colour accuracy make the monitor truly shine by offering true-to-life imagery with its wide gamut coverage. Similar to its 32” cousin, the U27P2CA also offers a Picture-by-Picture mode. Screen size (inch) 27, Panel resolution 2560x1440, Refresh rate 75 Hz, Panel type IPS, USB-C connectivity USB-C 3.2 x 1 (DP alt mode, upstream, power delivery up to 65 W), HDMI HDMI 1.4 x 2, Display Port DisplayPort 1.2 x 1, D-SUB (VGA) 0x, DVI 0x, Sync technology (VRR) Adaptive Sync If you want to get the best from HDR games and videos, then set your sights on higher certifications (600, 800 or 1,000) with local dimming technology – DisplayHDR 400 displays just don’t get bright enough to do HDR justice.

Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Croatian, Czech, German, Dutch, English, Spanish, Finnish, French, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Polish, Portuguese, Russian, Swedish, Turkish, Ukrainian There are plenty of other 4K monitors around that compete with the AOC U27P2CA: the LG 27GP950-B, for instance, keeps the resolution and the 27-inch screen size, while reducing the response time to 1ms. That's going to make it more suitable for gamers, and it's currently one of the best 4K monitors on the market – though it's worth noting that it's significantly more expensive than the AOC model we've reviewed here. The on-screen menus are simple to work through, there are plenty of USB ports to make use of, and you can use the screen in portrait mode too if you want – something that coders and writers often like to see in their monitors.With a two-port USB hub complementing the UltraGear Ergo’s HDMI 2 and DP 1.4 ports, the only thing that would have made this panel any more appealing is USB-C. Given the rest of the specs sheet, however, we’re willing to let it slide.
